Shared Education (Peace IV)

2nd Feb 2023

The Primary 7 class from Spa Primary School visited us today as part of the Peace IV initiative.  We watched an insightful interview with Nick Park, creator of the Wallis and Gromit films.  He talked about the use of Stop Motion Animation in these films and the processes used to produce these wonderful pieces of art.  After that, the children formulated their own ideas for a short animation, using a six scene storyboard.  They then began to create their characters for these animations using soft dough.  The filming process will begin next week!
